Upgrade Assistant seems to hang when I try to run it to upgrade Blazor client template project

DavidLSteffen commented 3 years ago

Problem encountered on https://dotnet.microsoft.com/platform/upgrade-assistant/tutorial/install-upgrade-assistant Operating System: windows

Provide details about the problem you're experiencing. Include your operating system version, exact error message, code sample, and anything else that is relevant.

I'm using Windows 10, Visual Studio 2019 version 16.9.1. I made a Blazor WebAssembly App from the Visual Studio template and I'm trying to update the automatically create Client portion of it from the automatic value of .NET Standard 2.1 to .NET 5.0. By what I understand the best way to do that is to install the Upgrade Assistant utility.

I followed the instructions here: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/platform/upgrade-assistant/tutorial/install-upgrade-assistant And successfully installed try-convert and upgrade-assistant.
When I run the Upgrade Assisant with either the solution or project as arguments, it starts the upgrade assistant, and presents it with the initial options menu, but then it does not respond to anything I type. Looking at screenshots of Upgrade Assistant help it appears to not have printed the command prompt angle bracket, perhaps suggesting that it has frozen up? I have tried restarting Visual Studio, restarting Windows, but get the same result every time.

@DavidLSteffen Looks like a bug, could you please attach log.txt so we can know more details on what is going on? Also did you try running upgrade-assistant on any other projects you have? Trying to see if this project specific or something to do with the environment. Thanks!

The log.txt is very short and just has: 2021-03-17 10:54:53.334 -05:00 [INF] MSBuild registered from C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\5.0.201\ 2021-03-17 10:54:53.361 -05:00 [INF] Registered 1 extensions: Default extension 2021-03-17 10:54:56.024 -05:00 [INF] Initializing upgrade step Select an entrypoint

Hmm, that is weird. Could you try running the tool with -v to turn on verbose diagnostic logging and attach what you see here?

upgrade-assistant <solution_path> -v

@twsouthwick PTAL along with #41

The current focus for upgrade-assistant to assist folks to move from .NET Framework to .NET Core, this would a great enhancement for future.
